ulysses_I went on the hackintosh channel and asked them what cartridge to use to install Mac OS X onto my Atari 2600, didn't get many answers :/ lol07:37
lotuspsychjeulysses_: perhaps ##hardware can help07:38
ulysses_It's just a joke lol an Atari 2600 has less computing power in it than a microwave07:39

ulysses_Very snazzy07:41
lotuspsychjelol07:41

lotuspsychjeim sure it will ulysses_07:43
ulysses_Has the potential to be something great07:44
ulysses_If Atari got back into the game after all of these years, that'd be super cool, especially running on our beloved Linux07:44

ducassereally expensive and pretty pointless, but still cool :)07:51
ulysses_I remember a while ago they brought back the commodore 64 for a short time, you know, a computer in a keyboard07:51
ulysses_I think it actually came with Ubuntu as an option too, but this was a good while back07:52
lotuspsychjepress play on tape07:52
lotuspsychje...loading rambo07:53
ulysses_The Commodore formfactor was so cool but the bloody things took forever to do anything07:53

ducassei'd love to see haiku os get a bit more traction07:57
ulysses_That'd be interesting, I was just reading about that07:58

lotuspsychjelol07:58
lotuspsychjecool idea actually07:59
ulysses_Like... what if Xerox OS made it? You know it actually looked pretty good08:01
ducassei wonder what nextstep would be like if they hadn't been so damned expensive and actually took off, so apple never bought them?08:01
